Gonna hold out til 1.0 for this one mostly because I wanna experience it as a whole and not be spoon fed each patch, but definitely gonna get it. I love the land marks and the mystery of like who built it and why. Like that huge statue holding up the cliff and the giant sword in the background just draw me in and make me want to know more of the universe :D

I like the enemy animations and weapon models in this game! They're fairly realistic, which is a very nice surprise. Enemies wind up their swing for a bit of power and follow through on their attacks, which looks nice. I hate games with enemies flailing like special needs kids holding weapons made of foam. Skeletons in this game do that, but that's okay because they're skeletons. I also like the fact that twohanded swords swing pretty fast, which is another realistic touch - I hate how slow they are in Skyrim, it really takes me out of the game experience. Game devs usually make twohanded weapons slow for game balance, which is extremely lazy.

I love the KLANK of my weapon hitting metal and hearing the blood gushing whenever dismembering an enemy, in this game it doesn’t look as satisfying as it is in Vermintide 2. Vermintide 2 has MASTERED combat immersion. Just immersion in general, the woodland maps with the birds chirping and the sun piercing through each patch of leaves in a tree and following through onto the ground and the enemies yapping between each other. Idk why but when I think of the perfect medieval combat system I think of vermintide 2. Just everything from the music, to the maps to the magic to the melee combat it’s all perfect. They literally got the sounds of you critically hitting PERFECT. Just check it out and see for yourselves. I wish this game took some things from vermintide 2.

@boogieboo5085 10 ай бұрын

A common mistake (and a pet peeve of mine) in RPGs is making Broadswords 2 handed and Longswords single-handed. It's actually the complete opposite. A quick Google search on medieval weaponry would verify that, but I suppose an argument could be made that things are "different" in this world. Outside of that, the game looks promising for an Indie dev team.

@reecedactyl 9 ай бұрын

@mostlymorrowind9832 7 ай бұрын

Meh, you're not wrong, but you're also not exactly right. A quick google search will reveal that the term "broadsword" meant any sword broader than a typical sword of the time up until the 15th century. It was a general term. The term could be used to describe a sword wielded with either one or two hands. It wasn't until around the 18-19th century that "broadsword" was used to describe single handed swords like the Scottish Basket-Hilt or the Chinese Broadsword. Similarly, the term "longsword" was also a general term to describe swords longer than dueling swords of the time. Hungarians of the 15th-19th century called their sabers "longswords." I'm sure at the Battle of Kircholm there was a ton of correcting the Hussars, "well actually that's a Saber!" Yes an argument could be made that in a completely fictional world, its residents would refer to swords differently than nerds online in real life 2024. However, an argument could also be made that any RPG drawing inspiration from the middle ages would have its residents refer to swords as people in the middle ages did... Hopefully this insight can help you get past your pet peeve and enjoy RPGs more.
